CFERROR or Application.cfc's onError method is what you want. That'll let you configure per-app error messages, because you're exactly right, the site-wide error template is really a server-wide error template.
If your server/network is down and the server's not getting the requests or can't respond to them, you're not going to be able to provide an error message to your visitors. That'd have to happen at some higher level. cheers, barneyb On 8/10/05, Ali Awan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I know this is a topic that has been discussed before so I apologize.
